I don't agree. I think the NHL is as good as it's ever been, if not better than it's ever been, in all the years I've been watching hockey. They've made a lot of changes to the game

Well, that was a spanking! Actually, if I weren't born and raised in NY, I would probably be a Habs fan. They are an impeccable organization and Therrien is arguably one of the best coaches in th

The only reason it went 6, and was close in all games, is Jones.

Congrats to the Sharks on a good season.

Woooooo!!!!!

No thanks!!!!!!!!! :-) I like it the way it worked out. :-D They outplayed all four teams pretty decisively. No need for another game seven.

But now the hockey season is over for several months.

One more game would have been so thrilling ......

What a great series and run the Pen's had this year !!!

Hope next year the final showdown will be a Blue's versus Pen's ........ :-D

No doubt the Penguins had to run the gauntlet in these playoffs. The Rangers and then the Caps, just to have the chance to go up against the Sharks for the Cup! One hell of a run. And the Pens "D" was just smothering the Sharks last night!

And last year's EC Champs, the Lightning.

Kind of amazing to limit a desperate team to TWO shots on goal when they trail in the game and the series and are about to be eliminated.

Two shots!

Wow. Wasn't expecting the Habs to trade Eller. Fine by me, he never fully capitalized on the assets he had. Did ok considering the shlubs he generally had to play with, but that was kinda his fault anyway. You're not going to get the first line wingers till you prove that you can produce. Always thought he had the tools to be a 50-60 point a year guy. Just never panned out. Good luck to him moving forward. Seemed like a good kid. 

Happy with the Shaw pickup, similar production to Eller but more jam. 

Russian D they grabbed in the draft looks promising. Scouting reports say he's the most NHL ready player in the draft, even though he's only 18 (today is his b-day).  6'3" 206lbs and a bit of a mean streak. Teammates and fan nickname for him is Mutt. Habs could use some of that. 

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Maybe not the right area but did you see the Redwings traded Pavel Datsyuk?   Both teams benefited, but a crazy concept.

Yeah I thought once someone retired their salary was off the books anyway? The contract was essentially ended. So what was that?

Datsyuk's contract is 35+, so it doesn't come off the books until it ends.

Actually I feel the Red Wings got away with that one. They dropped the contract, picked up an extra pick and a depth player and only had to move down 4 spots. Huge steal.

Oh, didn't think he'd signed it late. That makes sense.

I wonder if Arizona will be able to LTIR him or something.

They can't because he's not actually injured, plus they're just going to use it to help them make the cap floor anyway.

They don't have to pay Datsyuk a cent since they'll just suspend him when he doesn't report.

Yeah, I'll admit as a Pens fan I don't even consider "cap floor" type situations. Kind of sad, really.

Oh, that's how that works. They're still penalized on the salary cap, but don't end up having to pay the salary.

Okay.

Adam Larsson for Taylor Hall, P.K. Subban for Shea Weber, and Stamkos re-signed with the Lightning.

Interesting afternoon.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
